Sure, as long as the employer does not give me the choice limited to win or mac. Which they often do.


Shouldn't employer also pay for the the mandated equipment and upkeep thereof?


Usually they do. I worked at one place where they issued me a junk laptop that was a hand-me-down from a saleman who couldn't sell. I was ready to quit over the slow builds but I wound up just buying my own development box which somewhat shocked my boss but it turned out OK.

Everywhere else I got a machine that was the same as what everybody else got except for the place that used Macs everywhere but I was the machine learning engineer so I got an Alienware laptop with a good GPU.
